Google the benchmarks, both have their advantages, but to say Intel dominates in gaming is ridiculous.

It's better in most of them. When overclocked the difference is even bigger. Crysis 3 isn't the only exceptions, that's true as some recent RTS are also heavy on cpu. I'd pick i5 k anytime for pc gaming, when it comes to rendering, video editing it's a whole different story.

You gotta be neweggs multi...

im from europe so that didn't work either

Still Newegg's Multi.

Hi, Ben Kim!

Of course, I say i5> fx in 95% games and boy how I get paid for that

i'd rather get a better graphics card with a less powerful cpu in single threaded tasks that's equal or better in multi threaded tasks...

For some time it'd perform better, yes, but what if nothing interesting will be added to am3+ lineup? The next gpu would be bottlenecked or the platform itself would require an upgrade
The forum serves for discussion, I don't command anyone, I'm just stating what I think and what's true I believe, so what's the rant about?

My 3850 build performs exactly the same as my 3570k in all games i've played with the same gpu in them...

Just saying...

I think the 3850 might get 1-2 fps less at times.. and the 3570k will get 1-2 fps less at times...
